David,
Why don,t you try www.rrtraders.com or www.therionarms.com ----I think they might have something for you but be prepared to spend some money !!

I've seen some on Ebay offered by Ian Knight.
I corresponded with him but he was unsure of the shipping cost to the US so I let it go to someone else. Email me for his Email address and maybe you can contact him directly on this.

David,

You might want to try the following:

http://www.tribalmania.com/ZULUCOLLECTION.htm

http://www.rrtraders.com/weapons.htm

http://www.africancraftsmarket.com/African-traditional-weapons.htm

http://www.africart.com/ShopSite/Weapons.html

Don't know how old the offerings are but they claim to made by the amaZulu with prices that may be indicative! Buying from South Africa can only help their ailing economy.

Best

Ran across this as well:

Mostly other Zulu crafts but the money would go straight to the amaZulu presumably.
